what if we function best as humans, and are happiest, if we worship or revere something greater outside of ourselves, i.e. God?
What if I never want to ever wipe my @ss and still be adored by all those around me? still dont get it.....oompa
that pretty much says it all, but i just dont get why god so craves worship.
what is he really getting out of it???
but he wants it so much that if he can't get it, he will whack you out forever.. never felt like worshiping god but say thanks for great sunsets.....oompa.

his name is jehovah.. he is worshiped by 6.5 million moronic, self-centred, selfish idiots.. he likes what happened at the twin towers because his organisation has shown us images of this happening the world over when he simultaneously murders over 6 billion people.
even though this is repulsive to most right thinking individuals, it is his justice & his witnesses look forward to it and love him for it.. filth!
absolute filth!.
Allied troopsAnd not a single JW amongst them.
Was neutrality a good thing in that case?
So now it is not a good thing to be neutraul? We SHOULD be killing the bad guys, but if God should decide to whack them, that is a very bad thing?!? my head hurts......oompa the liar

Jambo, be logical. Jehovah would not like what happened at the twin towers, because it was truly done by evil, wicked men. The type he is supposed to whack someday.
And Greendawan says:
It is the devious JWs that have ascribed to God those future actions and it doesn't mean that they are genuine. They may well have misrepresented what he really intends to do. What the JWs say about the end is basically taken out of the right context.
I don't think we have exactly cornered the market on this one. Many religions preach an "end" to mostly wicked mankind. Many US Christian faiths teach not only people, but also the entire plantet consumed with fire! And the people don't really even get to die, just a little Sterno under their toes for all Eternity!! lets pick on everybody....oompa
i am working on my school assignment and i have a couple of questions regarding helpful activities for individuals with bipolar disorder.
i don't have any personal experience with the disease, does anyone have any knowledge or family members that have had to live with this?
i have done some research but i can't find any information that relates to 'daily activities' that may help an individual.
Moshe, can I have your exwifes phone number pleae or e-mail! LOL
But seriously I am being treated for this and am on cymbalta, lythium, one that starts with a Z. In two years swiched meds 15 times, and they really werent sure if it was bi-polar, or ADHD, or both.
life sucks sometime.....oompa

i just wanted to officially change something on my viewpoint.
i have thought about this for a few days.
i used to think that while they were in some ways controlling, that jw's did not meet the criteria of a cult totally.
AlltimeJeff, I agree wholeheartedly with your entire post except for one minor detail that I would like yours and other thoughts about. Do we really think the sale of Real Estate Properties are at all linked to payment of sex abuse settlement for only 16 victims? WTS has megga inverstments and cash on hand. Hundreds of millions, if not over a billion by now; I knew one of their chief finiancial officers for many years while he was at Bethel. This particular settlement was chump change!
very cultlike....oompa
our circuit overseer is now using the old sermon again...now, now, brothers and sisters the national average is 10 hours a month.
surely you want to accomplish this, don't you?
he is even knocking coffee breaks so that we can achieve this crazy average.
This is such a loving Biblical arrangement. I love how the Apostles and first century Christians turned in their time every month with such detail.
what a truckload of horseshit....oompa
i remember being a kid and we didnt have the fancy fabric seats, they were plastic stackable chairs all set out in the usual lines.. an elderly bro, rather rotund, farted, the noise so loud and thundering against the plastic seat!
or the time when i must have been about 7, my dad brought his bible study family to their first ever meeting, i had to sit on mums knee.
i recall giving the daughter of the new family a very vigorous v sign during the meeting.
A basketball buddy of mine, 6'3' was sick nervous giving parts, just could not breath right. His first Sunday talk his breathing started messing up, he grabbed the speaker stand and TOOK IT WITH HIM as he passed out and fell forward off the stage! Almost into the front row. Not hurt bad so hiliarious.
lots of commotion too....oompa
some background is posted on the link below.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/122891/1.ashx.
last year my brother and i bought my moms house.
one of the things we insisted on is that she get her good for nothing stepchildren out of the house.
Unbeliever, I have read all of your first thread on as well and you and your brother sure stepped up to the plate, and well along with child I am sure you did not need the stress. I am curious about your stepdads age and what business he would try that needed so much money as to dry up a perfect retirement house.
As to this current thread, PLEASE tell us what your mom had to say about moving away, not telling you and your brother, and letting those leeched stay there!!! How could she do this after you guys bailing her out?!?!? This is almost an unbelievable story, but you made it very believable.
be old but not stupid too.....oompa

My wife, hot booty33 returned from the ladies room with the entire rear of her skirt stuffed in her panthose and headed down the aisle to the second row from the front. A huge elder dude nearly tackled her and dragged her to the back of the hall.
big laughs....oompa
